Michigan #2 In Child Trafficking
Michigan ranks No. 2 for human trafficking sex trade behind only Nevada. In an effort to crack down on adults and juveniles abducted and used as sex slaves Gov. Rick Snyder is announcing a new team to fight crime. Snyder has appointed Cpl. Erin Diamond from the Wayne County Sheriffs Department. Diamond will chair and lead investigations for the state’s new Human Trafficking Commission. You may recognize Diamond, he’s arrested thousands of sex offenders over the years investigating online with the Wayne County Sheriff Department. This new team picked by Snyder will enhance the crime fighting strategy, Diamond said. “Before it was just enforcement,” he said. “‘Let’s go get the bad guy assaulting children and move on with it.’ This is a whole different aspect where we’ve realized that the victims need help. “We’ve always talked about helping the victims. This is the first major efforts to bring all the players to the table and say what can we do as a team.” The team played a big role in the safe return of 16-year-old Aaron and his 13-year-old sister Emma Blackwell. The teens were abducted at gunpoint in Indianapolis, Indiana at the start of this week. READ MORE HERE
